ThyssenKrupp Group has, within the Materials Services business area, reorganized and merged its central domestic materials trading business activities under ThyssenKrupp MetalServ GmbH, effective October 15.
The new company, which employs around 800 people throughout Germany, provides logistics and services for such production materials as stainless steels, nonferrous metals, pipes, and tubes. The Management Board consists of Dr. Volker Paetz (CEO), Achim Boner, and Marcus Wöhl.
Included under Düsseldorf-based ThyssenKrupp MetalServ are the central stainless steel and nonferrous metal warehouses, the stainless and aluminum service centers, the central pipe/tube warehouses, Stahlkontor Hahn, and the fittings center DAZ (Das Armaturenzentrum). These activities generate a sales volume of about one billion Euros.
ThyssenKrupp MetalServ’s lineup covers more than 100,000 items available ex-warehouse. Customers can obtain standard dimensions off the shelf and as a drop shipment, if the order is large enough.
“Our infrastructure is rigorously focused on the needs of our customers with their short-notice and varying requirements,” said Paetz. “Each customer obtains their order not only just in time but also to the exact size and shape needed, a one-off prefabricated part or series-produced mass items.”
